#loki beloved

[riddle-me-witch]

I am pagan because I am not made to bow. I am not pushed to my knees, my deities do not demand my deference or blind trust regardless of what they do to me.

I am allowed (encouraged even) to set boundaries with my deities.

I chose them, and they chose me in turn. They did not determine that I belonged to them.

They see value in me beyond my worship of them or devotion to them.

And most importantly, I do bow. But I CHOOSE that posture. They earn it from me. I worship them because they're divine, and lovely, specifically to ME. And they give me what I wish for, rather than gifts I never asked for but am somehow still indebted because of.

I am pagan. I am respected by my divinity.

Lord Loki, as the Solstice approaches, I pray for your blessing on my Jól. As family holiday traditions seek to pull me and my chosen family away from our own holiday choices and religious practices, I pray for your chaos and comfort, to redirect this winter's path and disrupt those who would take away our choice and joy.

And I pray for the same grace and blessing of your chaos and twisting upon each and every one of my pagan brethren who also wish for it.

See here's the thing about saying you're going to do some work with Loki the next day. Is that like:

Instead of doing any devotional work, you're going to end up not being able to find his dedicated deck, going to try to put together a devotional outfit in his colors, not being able to find the shirt you wanted to wear, and ending up finally starting to clean up the massive pile of clothes that's been sitting on your floor for months, while staying in your pajamas all day.

Yup. That's Loki

I need cake dowels.

I don't make cakes but they work really well as wands, something something we listen and we don't judge dON'T JUDGE MEEEE
